Ah sorry didn't realise t3 and t7 were different. As said just started research on this. The tablet is for my young daughter (under 3!) and it keeps her busy doing YouTube etc. Bought it a month ago but didn't decide to research and install a rom on it as it's been okay until I installed games on it this week and zaps battery.
I only know I got her a newsmy 7inch tablet,will look into what model heh. If it's a t3 I will look for it as well and let you know if I find one or will look into writing one as I've got back into coding after 6-7 year absence due to a motorbike injury.
Root for Newsmy T3
Hey Guys, I just got one of these tablets and I was able to root mine quickly by following the instructions on this forum.

download link for files: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1503729/RK2918_4.0_ROOT.rar
thanks Dave.S for posting it!
When I first tried to root mine I had some problems getting the correct drivers installed and I stumbled upon the Knives-and-Fork tool made by DieHappy that was very helpful and it sets up ADB nicely. http://forums.acsyndicate.net/showthread.php?5008
Succesfully rooted my Newsmy T3
It is strange but this fine tablet (Newsmy T3) is poorly covered in the web. It has been very difficult to find any info about flashing or rooting it let alone finding the correct rom.
I just managed to root the device. It was not so easy as implied in some posts because adb shell was unable to copy superuser.apk and su to the revelant folders even after remounting system as rw. But it seems that this tablet comes with busybox preinstalled (even though as non routed, busybox cant work properly until you root the device). So when connected via adb shell you can copy the above files to system/app and /bin respectively by issuing the revelant busybox commands. In brief do the following:
1) Google for superuser.apk and su for ICS 4.0.4 and download the two files.
2) Send those files to your sdcard with adb (issue those 2 commands: adb push superuser.apk /sdcard/superuser.apk and adb push su /sdcard/su)
3) Go into console mode (adb shell) and issue the following commands:
4) su (gain original privileges)
5) mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mtdblock8 /system (This remounts the system folder as rw)
There is already a su file under system/xbin (or system/bin) on this device, now it is time to copy it on your sdcard as a backup in case something goes wrong.
Now with the help of busybox you can copy su and superuser to the desired locations...
6) busybox cp /sdcard/superuser.apk /system/app/superuser.apk
7) busybox cp /sdcard/su /system/bin/su
8) busybox cp /sdcard/su /system/xbin/su
Next, set the correct permissions for su:
9) busybox chmod 6755 /system/bin/su
10) busybox chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su
All ok now exit adb shell...
11) exit
At this point your newsmy T3 is already rooted and you can check it with any free software like rootcheck. Once checked, reboot the device and youre done.
Hope this helps.

Help to root newsmy t3 dual!!!!!!
Where does supersu search for the su binary. I am stuck with the cannot find su manually reroot message. This was after updating a working rooted system to the latest supersu after it asked me to. The only su on the system is in /system/xbin/su there is no su in /system/bin and /system/sbin does not exist.
Can I manually reroot by using adb to create a link from xbin/su to bin/su?
I cannot find any info on "manually rerouting" that says anything but reinstall the latest zip. Which is what I did.
Help!

-Summarized Question for Busy XDAers-
1.Installed su binary and busybox through Android System Recovery 3e.
2.Can get root access from LG Recovery mode, half access on ordinary boot+adb shell, Permission denied on terminal emulator app. SuperSu not working, and 'root' is granting permission every 5 minutes.
3.HELP PLEASE!
-Full Question-
Maybe it can be a real noobish question, but I need help rooting my G Pro.
LG started Kitkat update a week ago, and G Pro also got Kitkat update.
I tried to root my device using old methods, and new methods for other G devices, but none of them worked.
So! I tried making one for me, using Android System Recovery 3e(maybe it could be a problem?)
I booted my device to recovery using
Code:
'adb reboot recovery'
and sideloaded zip file containing su binary and busybox.
Of course I signed it with testkey, so I could get SuperSu, su binary, and busybox installed on my system.
But, after rebooting my device, I felt something went wrong.
I typed
Code:
'su'
command on terminal enulator, and got
Code:
'Permission Denied'
error.
Assuming it's related to permission and owner of su binary, I tried
Code:
ls -al /system/bin/su
.
Here's the result:
Code:
[email protected]:/ $ su
Permission denied
1|[email protected]:/ $ ls -al /system/bin/su
-rwsr-sr-x root root 85096 2008-08-01 21:00 su
It seems...nothing's wrong!
So I tried with adb, and got # without asking Superuser app.
But I couldn't mount system, as well as other commands require root access.
I removed SuperSu and downloaded Superuser by ChainsDD, but that didn't work.
Instead, I could see on log that 'root' was granting permission every 5 minutes.
Not knowing what the problem is, I rebooted device to LG recovery(diffrent from Android Recovery 3e).
I could access adb from there, and got root access and removed some garbage apps.
Then, it means su binary and busybox is working.
What is the problem??? Please help!
EDIT:It was binary version problem lol
I naturally can't access apps which require the device to be unrooted in my androidx-86. Can anyone help me out?
version - 9
Android is got rooted if su binary is present in Android's /system/bin and/or /system/xbin directory.
To unroot Android simply locate the su binary and delete it. Take note doing so you loose root access forever.
Also uninstall the SuperUser.apk if present.
How do I root a kurio next tablet
Supposed Toybox is located in tablet's Android's /system/bin directory then simply update Toybox to v0.8.5 what comes with SU.
